Blessings, I’m Bas

I’m a heart-led, soulful guide on your journey to healing, self-discovery, and spiritual growth. As a shamanic practitioner, I work with ancient traditions and energy medicine to help you reconnect and remember your Self, heal deep wounds, and access your inner wisdom.

With a deep love for nature and an adventurous spirit, I believe that true healing happens as we open our hearts and align with the rhythms of the Earth and Cosmos. And create some solid and sacred principles to live by.

For me, the journey of seeing myself as Sacred has been the most epic and rewarding undertaking. So much shedding has to occur for us to see ourselves and others through the eyes of the Heart.

My approach is grounded in compassion, humour, and a deep understanding of the human experience. I’ve been a healer for over thirty years and have helped thousands of people step into their peace, creativity, spiritual gifts, and sacred purpose. It is not work for me, but rather the most wonderful role to play, and an absolute privilege to share in the lives of others. In good times and hard times, human beings are immense miracles of perfection.

Acknowledging my Teachers

The Pachakuti Mesa Tradition

Cross-Cultural Shamanic Arts for Personal and Planetary Renewal

​The Pachakuti Mesa Tradition of Cross-Cultural Shamanic Arts is a visionary portal into a 4000-5000 year old shamanic lineage of wisdom teachings and ceremonial mastery, founded by Peruvian Shamanic adept, don Oscar Miro-Quesada. A fusion of the central highland paqokuna and kamasqa curanderismo traditions of Peru, the Pachakuti Mesa Tradition blends the wisdom, shamanic healing arts and Earth-honoring ways of these lineages in a modern day context. Pachakuti means world reversal and refers to the time of transformation we are living now. This tradition, in all its richness, is an evolving practice of inner and outer activities that restore balance and harmony to our relationships with ‘All That Is’.

​​As a result of don Oscar’s apprenticeship in northern coastal huachuma curanderismo and initiation into the south-eastern Andean paqokuna shaman/priesthood, he was charged with bringing the traditions and practices of these earth-honoring ceremonies and healing rituals to the Western developed nations of the world. Thus with patience and dedication, don Oscar cultivated and nurtured the worldwide emergence of heartfelt sacred communities through his development of the Pachakuti Mesa Tradition. 

Mateo Magee, founder of ‘Living The Ceremony’

Though he holds multiple university degrees, Mateo regards his true education as having come from decades of immersive living and apprenticeship with traditional Indigenous communities across North and South America. With 27 years of dedicated study in the Peruvian systems of curanderismo under the tutelage of don Oscar Miro-Quesada Solevo, the late don Victor Bravo and his son don Pedro, as well as don Augustine Machaca Apaza, his son Santos, don Jasón Blaesing and others. 

His current work explores the power of receptivity in nature, stillness within movement, and the profound teachings found in silence and solitude.  One of Mateo’s core gifts lies in his ability to be a student at all times.  This mindset allows him to make complex and often elusive spiritual principles both accessible and deeply relatable to his students. His inclusive teaching style fosters a safe, expansive spaces where every soul can stretch out in, evolve, and ultimately find their way home.
